Tamarac -- A man living in the 4100 block of Northwest 48th Street was awakened Saturday by a burglar rummaging through his home, according to a police report.

The man told police the burglar had left by the time he got up, but found the screen to a bedroom window cut open, a sliding glass door open and his file cabinet ransacked. Nothing appeared to be missing, the report said.

The man had $2,000 stolen from his file cabinet and $500 taken from a dresser three weeks before, the report said.
